Abstract
Community food security (CFS) is both a social movement and a goal;
a collection of individuals and organizations working towards CFS,
which has been described as a situation that "exists when all community
residents obtain a safe, personally acceptable, nutritious diet through
a sustainable food system that maximizes healthy choices, community self-reliance
and equal access for everyone." The CFS movement strives for health, sustainability,
democracy and justice in our food system.
